<colin> alaric: pardon me for asking, but why were you ordering machine-gun ammo?
<ang> that's like asking ttk why he wants to buy a tank
<bogomoof> "just in case."

About a week ago, while in the hospital, two tiny jagged shards of something yellowish-white cut their way out through my gum, sort of along the line of the jawbone right before it reaches the roof of my mouth. Starting about two days after that, there's been what felt like the edge of a tooth there, as though an extra tooth was growing out of the roof of my mouth. Today, I pulled a roughly 5mm by 3mm by 2.5mm jagged piece of what looks more than anything else like tooth dentine out of the same spot. It didn't seem to be attached to anything, and I'm reasonably certain it's not bone. It's almost as though an extra tooth started growing in a spot where there isn't supposed to be one.
Needless to say, this has me mightily puzzled. I need to see a dentist as soon as I can.
